History OF the 7snignts Trmpiar.

growth and the decline and fall, of this famous
military and religious order has hardly its pa.

probably better than any other, qualified TO tell
il in II manner worthy OF the theme.
This celebrated order was established IN 1l17
for the purpose of keeping open, for pilgrims the
road between Acre and JcruSalem. 1t consisted
originally of nine French knights of noble birth
who assumed heuppClation OF The poor Broth
ers in Christ: they took upon themselves VOWS
OF poverty and of chastity. anG of anquestonns
obedience to the Patriarch of Jerusalem uad TO
the Knight whom they should choose as their
Grand Master. The Order soon grew into the
IN 81 important one in Christendnn. having inn
lnense possessions in nearly every Kingdom in
Eur pe, even after their final eN pulSion from Pal
astine by the Sarace;lS III l2S9. The story of the
jealousy which sprung up against the Order
among the European sovercisns-thc Pope in

the arrest and trial of the French TeInplars i'll

A Troublesome Calfshead,


In n certain village in Maryland small
boy kicked up n breeze in the parish church
one Sunday. 1t seems that n certain good
woman bought caIf's head and put it on to
boil, leaving her little boy TO mind it while
she went TO church close by. The minister
had reached his Filthy, my brethren"
when small boy stuck his heal in the door
AM whispered: mammal" The good
woman recognized her son instantly, and
began a. ouee to make signs to him to leave
tho door. Mammal again came the
whisper, this tine little louder than be-
fore The mother shook her finger at the
boy warningly, and in'ulgel in other
familiar paltcali.ne with which she was
accustomed TO awe her son. But it dilll' t
work worth cont. The boy was excited

shouted: "Mamm7, you needn't wink and
blink at no; hut you had better come home
right away, for the calls head is buttin' al

tfemloc;6 Coming Timber.

Michigan operators are evidently
cutting hemlock timber wherever they
can find it. In current reports of in
dividual operations in the woods it is
very common to see stated that one,
two. three or five million feet of Hem
lock will be put in during the winter,
and these small lots here and there,
will aggregate no mean amount tor
next seasons cutting. The lumber
makers are evidently finding out that
there is money in hemlock, and that
they cannot afford to overlook it, or
leave it behind them when they are
cutting their pine timber. 4 few Of
the Misunderstanding operators have been
aware of this for some time, and very
quietly they have been putting in
small quantities OF this wood, which
they have sawed and sold at a very
good price and a round profit. There
is very fair market for hemlock i'll
Chicago, and during the past season
a large quantity has found buyers here.
Some of it has been piled up in the
Twenty-second street yards, and the
owners OF it have doubtless forgotten
that they haye stick of anything in
their stocks that is not white or Nor
way pine. 1t is on record that inter
Tor operators those, too, who have a
good deal of experience in handling
lumber have been deceived by this
wood. In one case an order for No. l
piece stuff was filed with hemlock,
which was OF choice quality. The
buyer objected, but he really did not
know what was the matter, and began
by accusing the seller of shipping
cypress piece stuff. The latter oblis-
ingly poia.e;l out to him that no such
stock had ever been seen in his mark
ct, and was an article which he would
have great difficulty in getting if he
wanted it. At the same time he as
sured his customer that he had ship
ped him all No. piece stuff and ask
ed him to throw out any that was not
No. /, and charge it back. The
country dealer evidently could not
find any No. 2 stock, for he paid the
bill without deduction, probably con-
GLIDING he had struck a kind of hard
pine he had never before seen. And
it might be added that he probably
got an article OF dimension that is
Just as good, and possibly a little bet
ter than the average run of white pine.
The best white pine stock does not go
in with piece stuff logs, as 1t is very
well known, and dimension or bill
stuff, apart from its character us such
would grade not better than common.
There is no reason why a large pro-
portion OF hemocl1 piece stuff should
not be first clear, as the good as well
as the poor logs, az it is now manu-
factured, 20 in together. Really there
fore, the quality Of hem!ock dimen
sion is better than white pine, and as
it dries out light, making desirable
shipping lumber, and as it is wei suit
to the purposes for which such stock
is used, there is no reason why it
should not come into market on its
merits, and sell for what it is. That
it will do so, AMI that very soon, is
an altogether safe prediction. The

Chicago, Burlington & Northern.

There is no longer room for a doub
that the Chicago, Burlington & North
ern railroad company contemplates
extending their system to Superior
and the head of the lake. The last
line run into town by engineer Engle,
crosses the Nemadji river near Brooks
brick yard, thence on line Just east
of the lower-town school house, cross
ing the n. +. track near its "" at
Newton avenue and I'd street, thence
onto the bay and outside Of the \. T..
track to Corners Point. Other lines
have been run crossing the river fur
Their up and coming il. back of town
and through to the west end OF the
bay. Another survey, we are told,
lands the company on piece OF land
near the mouth of the Nemadji river
and the natural outlet to the lake.
Which Of these routes will be adopted
by the company, of course we have no
means of knowing, but that the G. b.
& n people mean business there is no
doubt, and that is enough for us poor
waiting mortals to know. Speaking
of the same enterprise (from a Duluth
standpoint, of course) the News Of
Tuesday morning says:
THAT the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern railway is not only contemp-
hating line to Duluth, but will actu-
ally build one, there is now not the
shadow of a doubt. The fact that sur
yeys had been made was well known,
but these were looked upon as showing
a probability, but not, perhaps, GER
tainty. In conversation with the
chief engineer, Mr.. Il. L. Engle, The
News learns that the survey is about
completed, the engineers party being
camped at West Superior, with the
line almost into that suburb. 1t is to
be run to the base of Connor's Point.
A line has been found from the main
line below Lake Pepin that runs 10
Duluth almost in an air line, curying
to the westward slightly to 90 near TO
Grantsburg, which place, though I'M
touched BY the survey, will probably
be reached by the road. A good route,
with low grades and easy curves, is
the result Of the engineers work, and
it is the opinion of the chief engineer
that it Is route that can lie operated
at one-third less cost than any road
now built or building in that direct
ion. The roadbed can be made and
ironed at considerably less that S15,-
600 per mile. 1t was learned from
Mr.. Engle that work would be pushed
and one section at least, finished this
year, perhaps leaving to 1888 the final
completion to Duluth. The import
ant matter of terminal facilities Is now
under consideration. "

In the early days of Chicago, be-
fore its enterprise had raised it out of
the mud, and AT time when it was
not an unusual thing to see board
nailed to stick driven into the mud
ut some street crossing bearing the in
scription, NO bottom here" John
Broughan, the genial Irish actor, had
benefit at McVickar's theatre 1t
was in the spring of the year, and dur
ing a week when Chicago was enjoy
ing wet spell. The day and even
ing was an unusually rainy one. Still
his friends managed to make their APP
pearnce, and eagerly awaited his al
ways welcome little speech before the
curtain. After the first act he came
before the curtain, and all was still TO
listen to his expected humor. The
silence was SO great that the pattering
rain-drops on the road could be plain
" heard. With genial smile light
ing up his face, he commenced, clad
les and gentlemen, | presume | am
aadre. sing the floating population of
Chicago"
The balance of his speech was lost
among the roars ST laughter, for he
had sustained his character for wit
and humor.-Editors Drawer, in

4 Horse For .Eancsyis:a.

LONDON, Jan. 23.-The well known
stallion, Enterprise, admitted to be
the finest British draft horse ever foot
ed was purchased at Richmond Sat
urday by Galbraith Bros, of James
will, Wisconsin, and will be shipped
IN few days to Chicago, where it will
be exhibited while before going to
Wisconsin. Enterprise won the champ
plon cup at the great draft horse show
at lshngton. Since the champion
Clydesdale stallion, Druid was pur-
chased SIX years ago, this is believed
by competent judges to be the finest
draft horse eyer secured by Americans.
The price paid is not named, but is
